João F. R. Tonini, Ph. D. - Fieldwork

I have been fortuned to start doing fieldwork during my undergraduate studies at the Universidade do Espírito Santo. Since then, the field component has become crucial part of my research. Below you will find pictures of some amazing creatures I have seen.

Reserva Biológica de Duas Bocas, Cariacica, Espírito Santo state, Brazil

The expeditions happened during my undergraduate studies at Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo. We had monthly visits to the reserve to sample five days in a row using multiple sampling methods for mammals, squamates, amphibians, and parasites. The expeditions were part of a grant of Drs. Leonora P. Costa and Yuri L. R. Leite to document the biodiversity in the Atlantic Forest. Check out the publication of the results.

Floresta Nacional do Rio Preto, Conceição da Barra, Espírito Santo state, Brazil

The expeditions happened during my master studies at Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo.
